‘Sow the
Seed’ is a special Southwest Conference offering that helps to provide grant
awards to support ministries of faith formation of youth undertaken by churches
in the conference. The awards focus on
children and youth under 18, families with children, and / or young adults
between 18 and 25 years old. Any church
or UCC ministry group can request a grant of $2000.00 to support their work in
faith education, spiritual formation, service programs and activities or
ministries specifically for these populations.
Sow the
Seed has also been
there to support conference wide youth activities.
All
contributions need to be into the church office by February 29, 2024.
As always
you have two ways to give:
1). You can
write a check payable to Desert Palm and make a note on the memo line for Sow
the Seed.
2). Or, you
can use the ‘Give’ feature on the DPUCC website. There will be a donation option and a drop-down
box where you can select Sow the Seed.
Thank you,
Desert Palm, for supporting our children and youth!
